Favorite Camping Food.
    #19309856 - 12/21/13 11:00 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

Hey shroomerites, what are your favorite camping foods and recipes (if you care to share)?  I'm not talking hot dogs on a stick, but real meals that you can really fill up on.  I've got a good set of cast iron cookware, dutch ovens, skillets, etc. and I always take them camping, I'm able to even bake small pies in one of the dutch ovens (though I'd like to get a nice 12" or 14" dutch oven for full size pies).

I'd like to know what people cook when they are outdoors and have the ability to cook anything.  What sounds amazing outdoors?  Soups and stews?  Cobblers and pies?  Burritos, sandwiches, baked bread, etc?

I'm going to be attempting some baked bread this coming camping trip that I'm doing this January.

Use one of those dutch ovens, and make some black bean chili! Let it slow cook in the coals.

Cobblers in the woods are awesome!!  I haven't cooked much with a dutch oven before but I'd like to start using it more.  One pot cooking sounds good to me.


If I'm at a camp I'd cook up some bacon or sausage and eggs and oatmeal or pancakes.  For dinner I usually do veggies, rice, and some meat.  Would like to make some chili or stew in the dutch

Irish brown soda bread works really well in a dutch oven.

175g wholemeal plain flour (not bread flour)
175g white plain flour
50g porridge oats
enough buttermilk or 50/50 mix of yoghurt and water to make a stiff dough
pinch of salt
pinch of sugar
1 teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda

Weigh all the dry ingredients before you leave and mix them in a ziplock baggie.
Grease the inside of the dutch oven lightly with butter or oil.
Mix up the dough with just enough of the buttermilk or yoghurt to make a stiffish dough... not too wet or it gets messy.
Put in the dutch oven and cook covered for about 45min to an hour.

It keeps pretty well and works great for open sandwiches.

Yeah and the beautiful thing is that it needs a hot moist atmosphere to cook properly so a dutch oven is perfect

That reminds me of baking bread in a tin can.  Never tried it just read about it.

Mine is what we call Boy Scout Stew.

Take potatoes, cube them, carrots, and onion, lay them in foil, take hamburger and make little balls and put on top of veggies... Close the foil and cook over fire.
The burger fat cooks the veggies on the bottom.
Add salt and ketchup and some baked beans and you're good to go :smile:

Also, making breakfast burritos with a skillet over the fire is pretty dank.

My girl likes to make squash soup in a Dutch oven, too.. Soooo good.

We called those silver turtles. Good eating, but a little impractical for backpacking due to food safety issues with ground beef.

I like to camp and fish simultaneously so here's something you can do:

Tote with you some

Grits, if you can't get 'em :shrug:

Shelf-stable parmesan cheese.

Olive oil

A nice seasoning mix like salt and red pepper and garlic powder. Or ms. dash or wtv

Optional: onions, garlic, peppers, or my favorite, the chanterelles down at my camping spot.

Also, catch some fish.

In one pan fry your fish. Sometimes i poach them in water to save oil.

In another pan/pot boil your water, then add grits and optional veggies. Stir once, cover and remove from heat.

Fold shelf stable cheese into grits with a lil oil.

Serve up with fish on top.

Shit can be eaten out of the same container it was cooked in with one spoon and it tastes good ALLL day.
